Calm After the Storm, the Farce Ends
The Pope's Hall is one of the symbolic buildings of the Spirit Hall. Apart from the little-known Worship Hall, the Pope's Hall, the Douluo Hall, and the Elder Hall are the highest public symbols of the Spirit Hall.
The majestic Pope's Hall symbolizes the glory of the Spirit Hall. If it were destroyed within Spirit City, it would be a laughingstock and a disgrace to the entire Sun Moon Continent.
Therefore, Tang Chen's move of attacking where the opponent must defend truly proved effective.
As expected of Tang Chen, the founder of the Clear Sky Sect and the head of the Three Mountains. Under such circumstances, he was able to come up with a way to break the deadlock in the shortest time, sacrificing himself to ensure the safe escape of others.
Putting aside their abilities, Su He admired their spirit alone. If they weren't on opposing sides, they might have had a pleasant conversation and shared some drinks.
Seeing Tang Chen's state, Bo Saixi understood his determination. She looked at Tang Xiao, gently reached out, and grabbed the weakened Tang San.
With the divine power of the Sea God's Martial Soul erupting, Bo Saixi planned to forcefully break through with her subordinates and Tang San!
The massive Clear Sky Hammer distracted the Spirit Hall experts. With the full resistance of the four ultimate experts— Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile, Lion, Bibi Dong —the majestic Pope's Hall was ultimately preserved. Tang Chen, having failed in his attack, suffered a backlash from his all-out effort and was no longer able to fight.
At this moment, he maintained the demeanor of a strongman to the fullest extent. Even if he were to die in defeat, Tang Chen would stand tall, face the death head-on, and would never show the slightest weakness before his death.
"Let's go, Bo Saixi, let's go!"
Tang Chen murmured, his eyes filled with longing for his lover. He had lived the rest of his life in a daze, and it was only after Bo Saixi found him that he rediscovered the meaning of life. He had been given a second chance at life, and to be able to use his last strength to protect his lover and offspring before he died could be considered a worthy death.
"No, my Chen!"
Bo Saixi's eyes were already brimming with tears. For the first time, she began to doubt the accuracy of the Sea God's Oracle. Was it really worth sacrificing so many lives for such a young boy?
Perhaps in the future, when Bo Saixi sees Tang San revealing his evil nature and true form under the Sea God's Light, she will regret her decision today.
But what has happened today is already set in stone. Even if she has extraordinary abilities, she cannot revive the dead Sea Dragon Douluo, nor can she rescue Tang Chen from the encirclement of the three Limit Douluo.
Tang Chen had long since taken life and death lightly; he could take it on and let it go as well.
Seeing this, Su He sighed deeply. Fortunately, he and Xue'er would not suffer such a tragedy. Nothing in this world could separate them.
With the crisis averted and watching Bo Saixi's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Tang Chen breathed a long sigh of relief. His goal had been achieved, and even if he were to die now, he would have no regrets.
Qian Daoliu's Angel Holy Sword was already at Tang Chen's neck, but he hesitated to strike.
"Qian Daoliu, indecisiveness isn't like you."
"Let's do it!"
The heavily injured Tang Chen looked at Qian Daoliu and laughed loudly.
"Tang Chen, you've changed."
"Your ambition to reach the summit has become dulled."
Qian Daoliu shook his head, his eyes filled with regret.
His relationship with Tang Chen was both adversarial and friendly. Even though he had been defeated by the latter, he only felt resentful and did not harbor much hatred.
Although he managed to defeat Tang Chen on his home turf and regain his honor today, he still felt that the victory was not honorable.
In front of everyone, the Great Enshrined made an unexpected decision.
"Tang Chen, I won't kill you. But you'll have to stay in Holy Light Prison for a while."
"I think you should be able to see the truth of the matter."
"When you find your true self again, let's fight it out once more."
"If you win, I will set you free."
Qian Daoliu shook his head, put away the Angel Holy Sword under Tang Chen's incredulous gaze, and turned to leave.
The farce thus came to an end, and Tang Chen was imprisoned in the lowest level of Holy Light Prison by the powerful figures of the Spirit Hall. Although he was now a prisoner, Qian Daoliu still remembered their old friendship and not only provided Tang Chen with good food and drink but also hired Healing System Spirit Master to help him recover from his old injuries.
When Tang Xiao tried to escape in the chaos, Su He and Qian Renxue blocked his way.
"Sect Leader Tang, your haste to leave makes it seem as if the Spirit Hall is lacking in hospitality."
"Youngster, don't block my way!"
Tang Xiao's nine Soul Ring pulsed, clearly indicating his intention to fight to the death. Su He and Qian Renxue, however, would obviously show no mercy.
The moment the two joined hands, the Lionheart Saint Envoy, exuding boundless power, appeared before Tang Xiao, his sharp Lionheart Sword mercilessly slicing down his enemies.
Even the level 96 Clear Sky Avatar was at a disadvantage against the Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Under normal circumstances, Su He might not have been able to stop Tang Xiao from running away, but this was Spirit City.
In the Spirit City, where powerful figures gathered, the delay caused Tang Xiao to miss his best chance to escape. In the end, Tang Xiao was captured by the Lionheart Saint Envoy and Bibi Dong, his Soul Power was destroyed, and he was placed under house arrest.
It was perhaps the best possible outcome for Tang Xiao to survive, and it could be considered a mercy from the Spirit Hall. As for the Fifth Elder and Seventh Elder of the Clear Sky Sect, they didn't dare to show their faces in Spirit City from beginning to end. Upon seeing Tang Xiao captured, they could only helplessly return to their sect.
Thus, the legend of the Clear Sky Twin Stars came to an end.
Shrek Academy Team was permanently disqualified from participating in the Continental Advanced Academy Elite Spirit Master Tournament by the Spirit Hall for blatantly violating regulations. In the final match of the Grand Finals, Dai Weisi led the Star Luo Royal Academy Team to decisively surrender against the terrifying Spirit Hall Academy Team. Afterwards, he carried the beaten-up Dai Mubai and triumphantly returned to the Star Luo Empire with second place and the Blue Silver Emperor's bonsai.
It's easy to imagine that Dai Mubai's ending will not be good.
Although he was more talented than his older brother and had Innate Soul Power level 0.5 higher, he gained a rapid increase in Soul Power after taking the pills given to him by Tang San, but he lost a greater potential for the future.
Even if Dai Mubai were to return to the Star Luo Empire and compete with Dai Weisi again, he wouldn't come out on top. Whether in terms of strength or influence, he would be ruthlessly crushed by Dai Weisi. The final outcome would likely be that he becomes a carefree prince, stripped of his Soul Power and exiled to live as an ordinary person.
Zhu Zhuqing, however, was unwilling to sink into depravity with Dai Mubai. After the competition, she and Oscar went to find Su He.
Seeing the two standing in front of her, looking somewhat reserved and ashamed, Su He couldn't help but chuckle.
"So, have you two made up your minds?"
